   (Principal coauthors:  Senators Baca, Brulte, and McPherson)

                        FEBRUARY 24, 1999

   An act to amend and supplement the Budget Act of 1999 (Chapter 50,
Statutes of 1999), relating to state government, making an
appropriation therefor, and declaring the urgency thereof, to take
effect immediately.

      (Approved by Governor October 8, 1999.  Filed with
Secretary of State October 10, 1999.)

   I am signing Assembly Bill No. 756, however I am reducing the
following item:
   Item 3790-302-001--for relocation and restoration of Stilwell Hall
in Monterey County, and for the stabilization and restoration of the
Copperopolis Armory in Calaveras County.  I reduce this item from
$3,020,000 to $3,010,000 by deleting the funding for Copperopolis
Armory.
   This appropriation inappropriately diverts funding intended for
high priority state park cultural heritage projects to a local
project.  This project should be funded from local resources.
   The other budgetary augmentations and reallocations provided for
in this bill are appropriate expenditures and have my full support.

                                                 GRAY DAVIS, Governor

   Existing law, as set forth in the Budget Act of 1999, makes
various appropriations for support of state government for the
1999-2000 fiscal year.
   In augmentation of the Budget Act of 1999, this bill would

Recreation for cultural heritage projects to support of relocation
and restoration of Stilwell Hall at Fort Ord and for stabilization
and restoration of the Copperopolis Armory, as specified.  The bill
would appropriate $8,000 from the General Fund to the Department of
Fish and Game for the New Hogan Lake Conservancy, as specified. The
bill would also appropriate $235,000 from the General Fund to the
Department of Water Resources to pay the Reclamation Board's share of
preconstruction engineering and design costs relating to the Success
Reservoir Enlargement Project.  The bill would reappropriate
$6,000,000 to the Department of Water Resources for expenditure
without regard to fiscal years for various local assistance projects.

   The bill would declare that it is to take effect immediately as an
urgency statute.
   Appropriation:  yes.
